Short
for Interrupt ReQuest, IRQ is a signal that has a direct line to
the computer processor allowing it to stop the processor momentarily
and decide what to do next. Every IBM compatible computer has a maximum of 15 IRQs
and are prioritized in the computer according to the importance of the device.
- See document CH000715
for additional information about determining what IRQs are being
